The latest entry in the best-selling Grisaia visual novel series, “Grisaia: Phantom Trigger” series receives an anime adaptation. Tokyo-based visunal novel developer Frontwing is developing an anime adaptation of “Grisaia: Phatntom Trigger”, the latest in its popular Grisaia series. The anime adaptation is being helmed by TENSHO, director of the anime adaptations of the original Grisaia trilogy as well as other titles including Kin-iro Mosaic and Rewrite. Additionally, Akio Watanabe of Monogatari series and Kimi ga Nozomu Eien fame is in charge of character design as chief animation director. Bibury Animation Studios is in charge of general production. The PV for the anime adaptation, produced by .MP and streaming now on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VX9Mmjkg48I), offers a striking glimpse at the characters and visual style of the series. It also features a short version of the anime’s theme song, sung by Kurosaki Maon, which evokes the mood and tone of the series.

Voice cast comments on the anime and their roles!
●Uchida Maaya, voice of Rena
In the game, I got to play a rampaging Rena, an endearing Rena, and a cool Rena!
I’m really excited to see all these Renas in the anime!
I hope you’re looking forward to it, too!
●Sakura Ayane, voice of Tohka
Phantom Trigger’s cast of characters are finally springing to life in the anime adaptation, and I’m really happy to
continue to be a part of it.
Phantom Trigger is full of unfortunate girls who are often suffering, so please enjoy that as well as the story itself.
●Nazuka Kaori, voice of Chris
I’m really happy that Phantom Trigger is being made into an anime! I hope Chris’s cute and motherly, stern-but-smiling
personality comes through well on-screen.
I can’t wait to see it!♪
●Tanezaki Atsumi, voice of Murasaki
I’m very happy that the character I’ve been playing gets the chance to come to life in anime form.
I wonder if they’ll include that scene, or that one…and Murasaki’s Russian ninja-speak…
I can’t wait to see what the Grisaia: Phantom Trigger anime is like!
I hope you’re looking forward to it! Thanks for all your support, nin nin.
